Professor Glen Newey is a political philosopher who is Professor of Practical Philosophy at the (University of Leiden ). He previously worked in Brussels and until 2011 was Professor in the School of Politics, International Relations & Philosophy at Keele University, Staffordshire, England. He is a prominent member of the "Realist" school of political philosophers which also includes such figures as Bernard Williams, John N. Gray, and Raymond Geuss. Newey has also written extensively about toleration, casting doubt on whether it remains a coherent political ideal in modern liberal-democratic societies. Newey blogs regularly for the London Review of Books on a range of topics including UK and overseas politics, university politics, finance and culture, taking a strongly critical stance against free-market capitalism and the marketising of higher education. His journalistic articles are often informal in vein; in one article entitled ''As Useful as a String Condom''〔http://www.lrb.co.uk/v25/n02/newe01_.html〕 Newey criticises the British Royal Family as being of no use any more in modern Britain. His journalistic output also includes film and theatre reviews, as well as review essays on political and moral philosophy, and cultural criticism. He is also a strong defender of free speech and of academic freedom. == Background ==
